Attacktix Scooter completed

[dvandom]

Mostly taken from the toy rather than the show, with two exceptions. One, I treated the handlebars as thumbs, so didn't sculpt them on. Two, I added the lightbar on the forehead. I departed from the toy design a little in terms of lessening the amount of black on the back, as well. The head still turns in theory, but only has about five degrees of freedom between the struts. I did look around a bit for some premade wheels to cut up for the back, but ended up taking some scrap slab from the Pathfinder project and dremeling it into the desired shapes. The smallest round cutter head was useful for that, and for putting the grooves on the boots.

I definitely prefer Apoxie Clay over Apoxie Sculpt for my style of kitbashing. Sculpt may be stronger, but it's harder to work with in small amounts. Both are easier to mix than Milliput, though.

Good job!

You should try making the Guardian Small Foot sometime. :)

VERY nice. And I see that Scooter got the biggest gun he could find to compensate for not having inbuilt blasters like the rest of the Guardians. (Well, okay, it's just how Attacktix firearms are, but it seems appropriate somehow.)
